Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland

neutering feral cats -
no more killing of unwanted kittens

In many Swiss regions live feral cats, which belong to nobody and give birth twice a year. Normally these kittens become feral and nobody cares about them - in the end such cat colonies are killed with often cruel methods.
It is therefore not enough simply to feed such cat colonies or individual feral cats - real animal welfare is to catch feral cats, have them neutered and then (if possible) release them back into their familiar environment (and continue to care for them).

The Susy Utzinger Animal Welfare Foundation supports active animal lovers who want to castrate homeless cats.

Our work of the pillar "Spay / neuter campaigns Switzerland" contains:
- Cooperation with veterinarians throughout Switzerland for cat neutering campaigns
- Assumption of neutering costs for farm colonies and feral groups
- Rental of cat and dog traps
- Brochure "Cat castrations = active animal protection"
- Educating the population about this topic through posters and flyers
- Feed donations for feral colonies and farms

Getting to the root of the problem...
...that is the mission of this important SUST project.
In Switzerland, far too many unwanted baby cats are still being killed in agony in wild colonies or in catteries that have gotten out of hand.
Real animal welfare is about catching “wild” velvet paws, neutering them and - if possible - releasing them back into their familiar environment after neutering, but also continuing to care for them - and this is precisely why SUST-CATFORCE was set up.
Even if there are only a handful of strays (as in the case of the picture in the Zurich Oberland), even a small colony can grow uncontrollably into a huge group within a short space of time.
Our trained SUST-Catforce team therefore regularly goes out to tackle one of Switzerland's “hidden” animal welfare problems at its roots.
Thank you for making this animal welfare work possible with your donations and thus saving many animal lives from an agonizing, slow death.
